My First Ulog: Meeting with @xpency and @chiama in Abuja

in #ulog6 years ago

So, I learned about Ulogging about a week ago. I the last few days, I have seen a couple of posts about Ulog and have curated a dozen or so of posts on the tag. So, I decided to make one today.

Tuesday was really one of those awesome days cos I got to meet two powerful Steemians who have been very important in the development of Abuja Steemit community. Who are they?

You see that beautiful tall and dark lady? She's the great and powerful @chiama. I first met her during the Abuja Steemit Mega Conference in February. Later on when @surfyogi invited me to join the Wafrica team, we got working together. She's not just beautiful but also got a lot of brainpower.

Then the guy in the photo. No, not the one on green top - that's me (the ugly one). I mean the handsome guy holding the selfish stick. He's @xpency, the great NYSC Steemit evangelist.

@xpency is someone I respect so much on Steemit. He was the first great and experienced Steemian I met when I joined in January. I love his work, he has brought many people to Steemit through his engagement with youths. He devoted his time to speaking to hundreds of corps members but had to pause because of a some health challenges.

It was all fun, we talked about almost everything and I forgot my doctors warning about sugar, burying myself in chicken pie (please don't tell my doctor). We learned a lot from each other's experience on Steemit and also discussed some important issues concerning Wafrica and the Abuja community.

I'll be meeting a whole lot of other Steemians in the next few weeks as I aim to strengthen my network bonds by creating physical links where the connection was only online. If you can make out time to meet with some Steemians around you, do so, cos it's fun and educative to hear other's experience on Steemian and also share yours. I'm currently travelling to Benin city, Nigeria. If you are in Benin do hit me up between today and tomorrow. See you around and be your brother's keeper. Enjoy the day. !

lordjames, I'm giving you the keys to the kingdom. I don't even want to know what the steemjet key is. You got it, you are in total control of it.

I am blessed to have met you my dear friend!

time is ALWAYS of the essence!

When inspiration srtikes, never hesitate!

I just launched a new post with YOUR name in it! I wish you the VERY BEST!

YOU ARE STEEMJET! (I feel a little like Willie Wonka giving up the Chocolate Factory, but I just love what YOU guys inspired 100% and you EARNED it 100%)

Hi @dimimp. Is it possible to get a little SP raise because my voting power is falling low because of I upvote/flag so many comments while trying to make your posts readable? It would help out a lot...

Then I could actually start upvoting the good comments and not just flag the bad ones and make my own warnings seen

We all want that man, I guess we just have to wait till the evaluation on August 1, and if your VP is reducing because you're flagging comments & upvoting then stick with one. Either flag comments or become a curator.

That's true. I upvoted many warnings and flagged quite a few comments today so that is why my VP is low. It shouldn't go as low usually now that I think about it. I'm not entitled so I should just wait with the others.

Lol my friend wondered why my VP is always below 50% when i don't upvote myself or others much, he laughed so hard when i told him i used it for flagging.

The evergreen man @dimimp I thought it wise that since we have the STEEMJET workers, why don't we have steemjet 🆔. Check this out BOSS
